OUR STORY

At Ice & Lime, we don’t just hire mobile bars—we design and build them.

Based in Hampshire and serving London and the South East, our mission is to provide the professional event industry with high-impact, UK-engineered bar infrastructure that performs as perfectly as it looks.

Why We Started: Solving the “Rental Gap”

The story of Ice & Lime began in 2018. With a background deeply rooted in marquee delivery and high-end event logistics, our founders recognized a recurring problem: most rental bars were flimsy, “off-the-shelf” products that couldn’t handle the pressure of a fast-paced professional environment.

We decided to change that. Instead of buying standard equipment, we spent years developing our own bespoke modular system. We engineered the “bones” of the event—creating a product that combines architectural beauty with the industrial-grade functionality that professional bartenders and planners demand.

UK-Designed, Built for Peak Efficiency

Every modular unit in our collection is designed and manufactured right here in the UK. Because we are the designers, we’ve been able to integrate features you won’t find in standard hire units:

  • Integrated Infrastructure:

    Our bars aren’t just counters; they are workstations featuring built-in ice wells, sinks, and dedicated power points.

  • Rapid Modular Deployment:

    Whether you need a 1.6m straight bar for a boutique gathering or a massive 9.0m circular centerpiece for 1,500 guests, our lightweight aluminum system is designed for quick, precision setup in any venue.

  • Total Aesthetic Control:

    From sleek dual-zone LED lighting to handcrafted timber rustic finishes, our bars offer a 360-degree canvas for custom branding and graphics.

 

Strategic Logistics from our Hampshire HQ

Based at Brockbridge Dairy in Liss, our central location on the Hampshire and West Sussex border allows our logistical team to provide rapid, reliable support across the South East.

From grand marquee weddings in Winchester and Southampton to high-spec corporate brand activations in Central London, we ensure that our UK-engineered infrastructure is delivered, installed, and ready for service every time.

  • We needed a rustic bar for a wedding under Canvas, we wanted it to be oval and to offer a background for the ceremony itself, Ice & Lime were reasonably priced and relatively local so we approached them and had excellent communication and service - Tristan delivered and assembled the bar with minimal disruption to the many contractors also working in the space - the bar was a hit with the bar staff and our guests and helped divide the dining area from the ceremony area/ dance floor later in the evening - an excellent and reliable supplier we were pleased to have discovered - Thanks Tristan

    We used Ice & Lime for our wedding and it was probably one of the most easiest experiences! They worked with us to recommend the right bar for our event vibe and the number of guests. The set up and take down was super easy - Tristan did it all himself!! If you're in the business for a bar - Ice & Lime are for you!!!

    We hired the "Round rustic bar" for our marquee wedding in August 2021. Tristan was easy to work with, quick with communication and professional. The bar was delivered to the site and removed with efficiency. Most importantly the bar looked fantastic for the event and suited the marquee perfectly. The bar was fitted around the central pole of the tent and was a real centrepiece. Thank you Tristan and Ice & Lime.

    I hired Ice & Lime to set up a bar for a Calfreezy Youtube video and couldn't have asked for a better company to set up our bar. Tristan was so helpful throughout the ordering/installation process, he went above and beyond to ensure our bar was set up on time and looked great!

    I've worked behind and managed many bars worldwide but none were as quick to set up, as fully functional and looked as good as these! The cool finish and controllable LED lighting from the remotes, makes the bars unique and super professional. The team were really friendly and it's been fantastic to work with them. Cheers!

  • We were introduced to Tristan at Ice and Lime via our catering company and they did not disappoint. They produced a high quality bar that was fully branded with the company logo and looked incredibly smart and professional. Tristan was very helpful beforehand and during the set up, the service was quick and professional. I would thoroughly recommend Ice and Lime and will use them for any future corporate events.

    We hired an LED bar for our wedding as we thought it would be a great way to add atmosphere to our wedding tent....This bar surpassed all our expectations with so many lighting options and ended up being one of the main focal points of the party! We also found it great value for money compared with other providers. Tristan was a pleasure to deal with; delivery, set up and collection was all seemless and we would definitely recommend. Some pictures to follow...
